I lived near, ran in, and camped in redwood forests for 20 years. Mature redwood forest are a near desert of life, compared to area's where sunlight (even dappled), is allowed to reach the forest floor, and the redwood "duff" (needles it sheds), can't poison the earth.
The "Wonderful world of the mature redwood forest" crap you hear from the ecologists, is just that -- crap.
Ranks right up there with "let's spend our way out of debt".
